Written by Marie Lebert with the help of Wikipedia, here is a tribute to translators of the past, with the short biographies of 150 translators from antiquity to the 20th century. It also includes a number of women translators who, after being anonymous or hidden behind a male pseudonym, began to sign their translations with their real names in the 16th century.
